Lie your ass off then. If you have 3 witnesses saying that you were not speeding and only 1 cop you should win in court. I couldn't tell you this from first hand experience but I've heard that if you even have 1 witness and there was only 1 cop and your witness was saying you were not speeding you will win. This obvioulsy is not 100% sure guarantee but its worth a try. Alot of it depends on what you said to the cop when he pulled you over. Thats why they ask you if u know why he pulled you over, because if u say u were speeding then you cant say he was lieing, so if you played your cards right while he was talking to you and you and your friends all say you were not speeding I think you have a pretty good chance. Again though THIS IS NOT 100% GUARANTEE BY ANY STRETCH OF THE IMAGINATION.

Haha well u go tell that to my 3 friends that got out of speeding tickets that way. I personally have never tried it before but I know 3 peole who have done it and all have gotten out of the tickets, plus there really is no other way to get out of a ticket other than to go fight it in court.

I just went to the magistrate today. Get this 42.9 in a 25. 120MPH is speeding to me, but do the math. 42-25= 17 over. That's serious to these small S***town cops. My buddy is a PA State Trooper. He couldn't help me because this is was a local cop in a different county. Anyway, my trooper buddy tells me my only chance is to go there and be nice and beg. That's right BEG. He said, "It's only you and the cop and the judge in there. You can tell all your friends you MF'd them if you want, but while you're in there, you better be nice and beg." #1 Don't tell the cop he doesn't know what he does, even though you don't like it, he is a pro using that radar gun or that little calculator with the lines on the road. #2 If you admit guilt, they'll be more apt to work with you. Bottom line: it worked for me. I met the Douchebag cop outside and (sucking up my pride) said, "Listen, I know I was speeding and I'd be willing to plead GUILTY and take the whole fine if we can do something about these points." He said, "No problem." He hooked me up and asked the judge for leniency and I got 5 over with no points and a sizabale donation (for playground equipment I hope). The whole point here is you WERE speeding. You know it. Your buddies know it and the cop knows it. Admit guilt and beg. If you lie they're going to PIIYB.
